Like every week, We ask a question that parents can answer and vote in our section Babies and more Answers. This way we share experiences and know your views and customs better. Each week we launch a new question and value the answers of the question from the previous week.
Since Christmas is just around the corner, we wanted to ask you about your Christmas customs.
Santa Claus or the Magi, how do you celebrate Christmas?
Until not long ago, in Spain it was tradition to give gifts only on Three Kings Day, but Santa Claus begins to slowly sneak into homes. In many houses it is given on both dates, partly because when giving on Christmas Eve children have the holidays in between to enjoy the toys. We want to know who or who brings the gifts to the children in your homes.
As of today you have a week to respond in the Answers section by clicking on the link (if you reply here in this post the message will not be taken into account) and next Wednesday we will comment on the most voted or most interesting interventions.
Last week's question
Last week we asked you: What do you do if your baby hits you? A situation that often dislodges parents who don't know how to act.
The most voted answer has been that of cyberia:
Well, tell him that Mom doesn't get hit hard and distract him quickly. If I have him in my arms, I lower him to the ground, but nothing more. I don't hit him or punish him or anything like that. Distraction is the most effective because within a while they pass. Consent no, because I think it is important to distinguish that it is not right. But it should not be given too much importance. Of course this is seen over time, when it happens to you, you are overwhelmed.
The response of ememar, who believes:
Well, as you say, it is an attitude that leaves me perplexed because in its environment it has not been able to learn it ... I have tried several strategies: a soft not (does not stick, etc.), an energetic NO, simulate crying so that you understand that it hurts me, and even do as if nothing in case she sees it as a game (which means to fit some good cakes with a poker face). In my opinion, nothing works, at least with my daughter's 15-18 months. It just happens when it happens. However, although now it hits others less, but it hits itself or things when it gets angry ... I ask you not to hit but it does not work ... It is better to move on to another topic and intern to get distracted and get angry .
I invite you to take a tour of the Answers section because they are all very interesting. They will help you know how to react to the situation.
Now the new question for this week is now available and remember that you have a week to answer it. Please do it in the "Answers" section and not responding to this entry, so we can take them into account for next week.
